    The 7510 can only hold one 2.5" SATA drive. You can add a PCIe M.2 SSD if you would like additional storage.
    Here are some choices for Samsung 850: Link

    What you COULD do is install WD's new "dual" drive which has both SSD and HDD in one unit. Between that and the M.2 NVMe drive you could potentially have three drives this way.

    Hi, The drives in your link are M.2 format but they are not PCIe M.2. Those were SATAIII. That is an easy mistake to be made even if knowing you want PCIE but accidentally purchase a SATAIII since they look the same and both say M.2.

    If OP is interested in M.2 SSD be sure to shop for PCIe x4 NVMe m.2 SSD if you want fastest possible performance from the SSD

    Hi yes, that is a good one from what I've read. Note that there is also a "950 Pro" model with nearly same specs as the 951 in your link. Please see this anandtech article for spec comparison http://www.anandtech.com/show/9702/samsung-950-pro-ssd-review-256gb-512gb

    There have been some reports about thermal throttling of the 950 Pro, but I'm not sure if same for the 951. Probably. I think the main downside to these have been that they run a bit warm/hot. Maybe others on here who have these in their laptops can give real world experiences in regards to thermals

    The 7510 has a heat shield/sink so the 950 should be fine. I can't recall a time where my 950 would "throttle down," but then again it's not like I constantly access it. The 951 IIRC is an OEM part so getting it work may take some work.

    Well, you'll have the NVMe drive, then the SSD and HDD of the WD, which is 120GB and 1TB. MicroCenter is blowing them out, just an option.
